Enjoying this fancy new version of Bitmob? It makes compiling Spotlights infinitely easier, and the improved article editor will hopefully encourage more people than ever to contribute and eventually end up in a Community Spotlight.

Patrick Bonk is going to miss original Xbox support on Live, but he isn't sitting around moping about the loss of service. Tons of great DLC is still ripe for the picking and he's not going to let the opportunity pass him by.
